  1. Yeah is sure was good to see the old Duran back, hope it continues. I can't believe the Sox are 2 games out of the wild card, that's just so bizarre. Chapman has been the man but he hung a splitter right over the heart of the plate on that final out. And David Hamilton will always suck.
  2. What is killing this team is the lack of production from so many of their top prospects. We all know that prospects miss at the major league level. But I don't think this organization expected to get nothing out of Campbell, Mayer and Anthony to date as recently as a year ago. Hell I'll even throw in Casas as it wasn't that long ago that they saw him as a potential key contributor. I think player development is still a major issue with this team.
  3. Such a shame this team has such good starting pitching and has gone from one of the worst defenses in baseball to one of the best and they still suck. So relieved they didn't let that win get away last night, that would have been devastating. But the error was costly, I'm going to assume we have lost Chapman for today.
  4. I don't think you can blame the front office for Duran hitting .178. These are professional athletes, they need to perform up to expectations and most of them are failing big time.
  5. I guess I did too because I didn't want him traded. When he gets on base he can change games, I didn't want to give up on a player like that.
  6. To me this was the big development of the season. After the WBC we pretty much all expected big things. He was terrible and now he is hurt. Again. I sure didn't see that coming.
  7. Yeah we all knew this all winter, this is not a surprise although I didn't see last place They were counting on much more from players like Anthony and of course Duran. Both have given them nothing and that was not expected. But it was a poor plan from the start, what a shame we are wasting such a good starting staff. And now with the Bello thing looking more promising, as weird as it is, the staff just got stronger.
  8. Too close for me at the end but Chapman did indeed dial it up midway through the Harper at bat. But man this team is borderline unwatchable. When will Duran finally get it going? We have too large of a sample size to believe he is this now.
  9. Connerly Early knows how to pitch. It was a pleasure watching him work the zone last night. Whit and Chapman are the only pen arms I trust. Trevor Story can't get out of here fast enough, one of my least favorite players of all time. How many more LOBs did he have last night? Get this guy out of here.
  10. I will always hate the Devers trade. I also don't judge a player's season on May 9th. If they were going to trade our only big bat at least get something in return.
  11. You gotta admit what happened with Chapman was lucky. The team never saw this coming, few did.
  12. Other than perhaps hockey there is more luck in baseball than any other sport. Willie McCovey hit a bullet that should have won the World Series. He hit it right to Bobby Richardson. That was blind luck. We see hard hit balls caught and bloops fall in every single game.
  13. I saw that as I was looking up the spelling of his first name. LOL. We got blind lucky and should all appreciate that, we need some good news around here.
  14. My random thought of the day is I'm so thankful for Aroldis Chapman. We got blind lucky that Boston was the stop he made where he re-discovered the strike zone and became a bad ass again. He is so fun to watch.
